I run my fans off a seperate power supply as they are 24v and eat 80watts each and whilst running some prime runs @ 3.9ghz to test the new setup the other day i forgot to turn them up (dont ask me how i forgot they are bloody loud enough at full voltage to notice they arent on)

102c was the only thing i saw coretemp flash before the machine shut down.. luckly no damage
